Left 4 Dead 2 Coming to a PS3 Near You

Sunday, June 21st, 2009

Left 4 Dead 2 Cover PS3 may be getting its own version of the multiplayer FPS if the official EA website is correct. Not only is PS3 listed in the “Coming Soon” section of the site, but a quick glance of EA’s games page reveals placeholder box art for the game as well. This could be a sign that EA is working on a PS3 port; the company did work on the PS3 version of The Orange Box.

Don’t hold your breathe though Sony lover’s. If you remember the rumor that the first one was coming to PS3 too, but we all know how that went. Until the release date, keep your fingers crossed. Or just buy an xbox360 and then you won’t have to worry about getting good titles.

Console Useage Report !

Wednesday, April 8th, 2009

The Nielsen group has released a new report on usage of the three major consoles. Coming as little surprise, Nielsen’s study has placed Wii in dead last, with the average player using the console 6.8 percent of the time during Nielsen’s study in December, 2008. During that same period, those involved in the study played Xbox 360 10.2 percent and PS3 10.6 percent — nearly double the Wii average. Clearly, the average gamer doesn’t have the endurance necessary for long-term waggling.

Wii also ranked the lowest in average days used over the course of the study, with users only partaking an average of 5 days (so much for that Wii Fit vow). The PS3 ranked second place, with users spending an average of 6.8 days days, which leaves us with Xbox 360 — the top dog in this category — with an average of 7.1 days.

Lastly, Nielsen tracked the daily average number of sessions, and, again, Wii was last with 1.78 sessions, whereas the Xbox 360 and PS3 had much higher averages of 2.15 and 2.74 sessions, respectively. So, how would you rank your console usage?
